• Active object helper
• ASIO helper (deadline timers and async service handling)
• LOG facility (lightweight Debug logging)
• Google Test runner helper (test.h)
• String manipulators (bounded stings, tagged values) to allow creation of concrete types (we limit use of bare strings in favour of type safety)
